Questions about Neither, Nor, Either, Or

What does the Neither, Nor, Either, Or worksheet cover?

It practices completing a correlative conjunction pair in a sentence — 8 questions for Grade 5, all on Common Core L.5.1: Use conjunctions, prepositions, interjections and verb tenses correctly. The instruction to students is “Choose the word from the box that makes sense”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.

Which Common Core standard does Neither, Nor, Either, Or practice?

CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.L.5.1 — L.5.1, under Language for Grade 5. The published standard reads: “Demonstrate command of the conventions of standard English grammar and usage when writing or speaking.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.

What age or grade is this worksheet for?

Neither, Nor, Either, Or is written for Grade 5, typically ages 10-11. It is one of the sheets on L.5.1, so it suits any student working at that standard — including older students revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.

Does Neither, Nor, Either, Or come with an answer key?

Yes. All 8 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.

How many different versions of Neither, Nor, Either, Or can I print?

25 — one per student, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.

Is Neither, Nor, Either, Or free to print and photocopy?

Yes. Neither, Nor, Either, Or, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
